I've heard it, I have Millenial and much younger family members, and it's a real thing.

Kids/young adults are horribly status conscious, and since SMS really breaks iMessage conversations, they'll sometimes leave out people who don't have iMessage rather than deal with the downgrade.

It's crappy, it's juvenile, but it happens plenty... Just like the dumb, juvenile stuff we did when we were... juveniles
